Background light setting problem - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Hi,
under setting - system-displaylight-Battery
(not quite sure whether this is 100% correct because I am using the german version Einstellung-System-Beleuchtung-Akkubetrieb).
It is possible to set for the background light of the display the delay timer until the light dims down to safe battery.
The standard is 10s, I would like to use 30s.
So far so good, I am able to do the setting to 30s, but after a soft reset or after switching off/on the Kaiser there is again the default setting of 10s.
Do I miss any other preset of this battery safing function?
Any possiilities in Kaiser tweak or Registery setting?
So far I have not installed any other "System tool" for controlling Profiles or anything like that (I have the bluetooth patch, the new camera and album, tomtom, mobipocket, but those applications should not interfear with this system setting)
Best regards,
Claus
PS: I am using the Kaiser since a couple of days - great device - but this is my very 1st WM device, I was using the last years UIQ2 and UIQ3 devices from SE, therefore please forgive any newbie questions

no big news

Congrats! you have hit the same problem as many of us... I don't quite get this to work properly and didn't find any hint yet, so i went different way - disabled backlight and enabled screen turning off in settings -> system -> power (where you can see the battery bar with percentage)
Hope this helps at least a bit.

At least I am not alone in the dark
Many thanks for the reply.

The others didn't realize they have the same issue yet

I solved it now with Phone Weaver a Profil manager.
http://www.sbsh.net/
I am able to set this parameter and now the easy thing is that after a restart of the phone I just enable my prefered Profil and with the Profil I have also my setting for the background light.

I recently installed S2U. Nice programme that I'd like to keep, but now my push email doesn't pick up from sleep mode (it was fine before). I've installed the kaiser tweak, and increased the default battery and AC settings to 60 secs, but it doesn't make any difference. Anyone have a solution?

I think there is a setting that you have to mess with. I would recommend following the S2U2 thread.
Are you using S2U or S2U2? If S2U, you won't get any support since it's essentially a dead project. If its S2U2 and its latest version, you should post a question in the S2U2 thread in the Dev/Hack XDA forum.
S2U2. I've posted a question in the forum you suggest, but if anyone knows the answere here I'd be very interested.
thanks.

Once you are done making the changes to KaiserTweak simply turn off your phone by holding down the power button. Don't hit the reset button at the bottom of your phone. If you do this the tweaks will not take effect.
I have been using S2U2 for a while now. I had the same issue - I don't konw what fixed it, but the things I do are: In Quick Menu (program on gullum rom) i leave activesync running all the time - i also changed from ISP to WAP settings - I get my mail on Exchange AS all the time now.

Advanced Profile Prog?

Hey guys, I'm looking for a profile switcher that has the following:
(a) a today component (preferably just one line)
(b) allows for the selecting of a profile temporarily (meaning after xx minutes it would revert back to normal like MeetingMute did for WM2003)
(c) allows for the automatic flipping of the screen (e.g. car profile reverts the screen into landscape mode so I can lay my tilt on the dash)
I am aware of phoneweaver and spb phone suite, but they both lack the last component and I believe they dont allow for the temporary profile...any one got something like this?
Forgot to mention I need it on a 6.1 rom for Kaiser
Hmm, yeah. Last component could be tricky. I just bought Spb Phone Suite tonight. It does allow for temporary profiles but it works in intervals of 5, 10, 15, 30 and 60 minutes. You can also set up one of the automatic profiles to start and stop at specific times of the day. The only problem with that is that it can only be one specific schedule. All it would really be good for in my opinion is maybe setting it up to be silent during the hours you sleep or something.
PhoneWeaver can rotate the screen

As the title says, the latest version of PhoneWeaver will rotate your screen, but I don't think it allows temporary profiles like your description, (though it is a simple tap of the home screen plug in to change it manually to any profile, then back again).

I'm using PhoneWeaver (the latest version) and if I understand your requirement correctly, it fully supports temporary profiles. But you can install a fully functional demo for 30 days for free AFAIK.

It does? I've been using it for 7 months and haven't found that feature :s
I am gonna be looking (currently on 1.3 beta 1), but if you feel like enlightening me....
I'll give the latest phoneweaver a shot tonight, the time I checked it was at version 1.1, so maybe 1.2 will have everything I need. Thanks for the suggestion, I'm still entertaining others just in case cause I really missed meeting mutes interval silent feature which was great if I only wanted to mute it for 2 hours (i.e. at a movie) and wanted it back to normal after that.

I'm using v1.2.1 and in the profile definition on the "Profiles" tab I have an "Timeout" option. Meaning I can switch from profile A to B and if profile B has defined a timeout of 60mins it will automatically revert to profile A after that time.

I use WinMobileApps Profiles for Windows Mobile v2.0.0. You can set Portrait or Landscape for any profile, and it has a nice simple one line Today plugin. It doesn't have temp profile, but does have revert to scheduled. It also has a command line parameter that can run a specified program or script when you switch to a particular profile. Works on 6.1.
Ok looks like both the WinMobileApps and PhoneWeaver both do all of the above. I ended up going with phoneweaver though because of other options. Thanks to those who were able to enlighten me on the newer versions

I'm glad I could help!
PhoneAlarm is a good choice too. It does tons of things besides profile switching (repeated alarms of missed calls, sms, mms, email, traffic cost/counter, etc). There is a free version too.
It's really nice but tends to slow the Today screen only when you change/move plugins or softreset. Other than that it's really nice.
You should give it a try.
solution for u

[Tweak] Enable more settings for WM Notifications

This is a collection of registry tweaks to allow greater control over the notifications in WM, including the ability to prevent repeating sounds for reminders. What it does is enable the controls in "Sounds & Notifications" that are normally unavailable for several types of notification.
It's a further enhancement of Juggalo_x's enhanced notifications, which has never been updated or particularly well explained (at least not on this website!) ... I have also included the low battery tweak, as suggested by juiceppc in that thread.
Large credit goes to fredjones32 for this guide with an explanation of the registry values and how the repeat check box can be enabled.
These are the notifications included:
ActiveSync: Begin sync
ActiveSync: End sync
Beam: Autoreceive
Connection disconnected
Connection established
Low battery
Messaging: Downloading MMS
Messaging: MMS downloaded
Messaging: MMS sent
Messaging: New e-mail message
Messaging: New MMS
Messaging: New MMS report
Messaging: New text message
Messaging: Sending MMS
Phone: Missed call
Phone: Voice mail
QuickGPS
Reminders
Wireless network detected
NB: Installing this CAB will turn off all notifications for all of the above events. If you go into Sounds & Notifications you will be able to turn on the ones you want again. This happens because the 'repeat' checkbox cannot be enabled without changing the registry value that controls which notifications are set. It is difficult to preserve the previous values during a simple CAB installation - but if anyone knows of a way please let me know. Detailed settings, for example sound file names, are not lost.
thanks mate
Hi Dave!
Thanks for this great piece of enhancement for all of our diamonds
I'm going to look into it!
Have a great weekend
Regards
Jeroen
Thanks Jeroen, let me know what you think.
you have a good one too!

Hi Dave! Thanks for your reply
I tested it yesterday...it's working great, except for one thing
I'd configured the notifications for text messages. I used the option repeat which was also available, so than I wont have to miss the alert about my messages...
But what happened, I heard every ten seconds my alert, I opened my message and It just went on and on and on....even though I already opened and read my text....that's quite strange/odd.....(hope you'll understand what I mean)
Did you had same behaviour on your device??
For the rest..I really really found it useful!
Many thanks again and I hope everybody is going to like it, just as I do!
Cheers
Jeroen
Hi Jeroen,
I don't use the repeat setting - I was mainly interested in being able to turn the repeat off for reminders! I use SPB Phone Suite on my phone, which allows you to configure sounds that repeat every few minutes until the original notification has been dismissed. The beauty of that system is that it is all configurable by profile, so when the phone switches itself into night mode the repeating sounds are turned off. It's not free but there must be some alternatives.
I've just had a play with the normal repeating sounds and you're right, they're particularly ****ing useless.
thanks I really needed that
Davey 101,
Thank you for compilations.
Davey,
Thanks for this application. I've used a couple of your applications/suggestions before (I can't remember which one - bluetooth perhaps) and they all work great. Thanks for your great contribution.
By the way, I have installed this and it works on WM6.5 too.

Thanks, that means a lot.
thank you for developing this. now i won't have to go climb a bell tower. those repetitive reminders were more than just annoying while i was on a call driving and couldn't shut it of.
thanks again.
Turn off led
Davey101 how to turn off led light notifications, because this .cab is only unblocking options
any-way of making this work when phone is turned to vibrate mode? works great when phone is in ring mode for me!

Two questions from the beginner

Hello!
I'm new for Kaiser and so - two questions:
1. Is it possible to keep ON the backlight of the hard-keyboard as long as it is opened? (Not fixed time of backlight)
2. Is it possible to see the day of the week on the standart HTC-Home plugin?
Maybe some registry tweaks?
Thank you!

A Lot people on here will tell you to give a forum a good search because all the answers you are looking for have been answered a lot of times before
i will give you a fix for the first one
HKCU\Control Panel\Back light\QKeyLedTimeout Enter the time you want the keyboard to stay on in seconds. For example 360 = 6 minutes. Default is 10.
"Enter the time you want the keyboard to stay on in seconds."
I know that! But I don't want the keyboard to stay ON in seconds! I want it stay ON ALL The Time I use it!!! And I don't know how much time it will take me to type a letter for example. But if there is not a darkness around me, the backlight of keyboard turns OFF after some time (fixed time) - how to prevent that???
In other words - how to keep backlight of keyboard during ALL THE TIME I use it, no matter there is a day-light around me or not!
Hmm! There is the light-sensor on the left side of keyboard!!!! That is the reason!!
Is it possible to turn that sensor OFF without using the black plaster? Maybe some registry tweak?

Handnotes on X1: S.O.S!

I have been addicted to Handnotes; the ultimate handwriting note organizer tool with great built-in Outlook-like scheduling capabilities, but recently moved from my good old Jam to my dream gadget: the X1, which apparently didn't get along with my favorite app. ((
Symptoms:
writing by the stylus doesn't start immediately; one has to tap and hold for a while (approx. 2 sec) until it starts "inking", after that and so long as u keep holding the stylus you can continue drawing lines as normal, once you remove it you have to wait again, which makes dotting your words for instance unbearable.
I suspected that it had to do with the touch scrolling properties so I tested a few things like changing delay time or even deactivating scroll but in vein, if this is the real cause then disabling it for Handnotes only would be the perfect solution.
Great minds over there any bright ideas?
Use a task manager to disable background applications, such as touch apps. If it works when those are disabled, you could create a mortscript to enable/disable them.
Thanks pal for the instant response I disabled one process that I found related to scrolling but unfortunately this doesn't help the problem persists no matter what (
Please could anyone try out the software and tell me what's wrong?
It's Handnotes 3.6.1 (and all releases) from Choung Networks.
Appreciation in advance
